Concert Buddie | Mind of The Record Collector: Norman Maslov

Whoa Buddies! Concert Buddie here. Are you in for a treat today here on another 'sode of Vinyl Community Podcasts! Our guest today is known to many in the VC at large: Norman Maslov. Better known as Mazzy (remember, Mazzy Loves You), he's been a fixture in the community for many years, helping share many tales from a life learned and lived in music. From growing up in San Francisco during the late 60's - seeing the rise of some of the most famous bands in the world: The Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane (and more) directly, in front of his own eyes, to working at a record store, and eventually a major label, Mazzy has spent much of his life closely tied to his passion for music. Arriving on YouTube years ago to share these stories was simply the natural progression into his own musical story. That said, this conversation gets into how he started on YouTube, how he's found connectivity in the community (including selling a viewer's own record collection), and we touch on a topic fathers out there may be able to relate to: what do we do when our children do not share our same passions; at least as passionately as we do? More specific: what's gonna happen to all our records when our time to leave this celestial plane comes? It was a great conversation, and one I hope you enjoy listening to here on this latest edition of Vinyl Community Podcasts!
